I'll just give my two cents about a couple of BF's concerns:
@Goat Simulator: I seriously doubt that it's hype will last for long. It's just a silly little parody of the simulators that have been popping up recently that's fun to watch for an hour at the very most.
@Variety: Maybe it's because I'm incredibly out of touch at this point, but I've learned to ignore the CoDs and GTAs and I'm seeing plenty of variety these days. RPGs, shmups, SRPGS, survival and action horror games, visual novels, platformers, FPSs, RTSs, MMOs, puzzle games, Action RPGs, adventure games, racing games, stealth, the list goes on. You're just not going to find out that some genres exist or are even still a thing by just looking at Gamestop's and Wal-Mart's shelves. I still don't get it when people who like games say that they also love to truly explore music, film, and literature, but then say that the majority of modern games are CoD clones and refuse to explore the medium like the situation's somehow different.
